A Strategic Milestone Elevating the Position of a Vietnamese Brand on the Global Hospitality Map
With a total investment of VND 820 billion and 174 rooms, NHAAN Resort & Spa Hoi An is Dat Phuong Group’s first project in the hospitality sector, marking a strategic step into hotel, tourism, and resort development.
According to a Group representative: “The project lays the foundation for Dat Phuong’s long-term development strategy in Da Nang, with a planned investment of approximately VND 7–8 trillion to develop a comprehensive ecosystem comprising resorts, hotels, golf courses, entertainment destinations, and commercial services. By the end of 2026, the company will continue this journey by breaking ground on the 250-room Hilton Garden Inn hotel at Dong Na Urban Area in Hoi An.”
NHAAN Resort & Spa Hoi An was designed by architect Vo Trong Nghia, drawing inspiration from Hoi An’s heritage and natural landscape.
The event also marked a historic milestone as Tapestry Collection by Hilton officially made its debut in Vietnam and Southeast Asia. The brand is distinguished by its philosophy of celebrating the authentic values and unique heritage stories of each destination.
The partnership between Dat Phuong and Hilton represents a notable model that brings together a Vietnamese developer’s deep understanding of the local context with the global operating standards of a leading international hospitality brand.
Mr. Luong Minh Tuan, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Dat Phuong Group, shares the company’s development strategy for the hospitality sector in Da Nang.
Speaking at the ceremony, a representative of the Da Nang city leadership emphasized: “We highly appreciate Dat Phuong Group, a company that has been closely connected with this region for many years and has consistently pursued a development approach that balances investment with conservation, and growth with the preservation of local identity. The combination of a Vietnamese enterprise with deep local understanding and an international hotel management brand not only creates a high-quality hospitality product, but also contributes to enhancing the destination’s value and promoting the model of green and sustainable tourism development that the city is striving to achieve.”
Da Nang city leaders recognize Dat Phuong Group’s contributions and commitment to sustainable development.
A Heritage Architectural Masterpiece and the “Nha – An” Philosophy
Located along the Co Co River, between the ancient town of Hoi An and the buffer zone of the Cu Lao Cham – Hoi An World Biosphere Reserve, NHAAN Resort & Spa was designed by renowned architect Vo Trong Nghia, drawing inspiration from Hoi An’s distinctive architectural heritage, as well as the surrounding nature and local landscape.
The name “NHAAN” combines “Nha” (home) and “An” (peace), conveying the meaning of “a home in Hoi An.” It embodies the idea of a warm and welcoming destination where guests can feel a sense of familiarity and belonging, as though returning to their own home, while experiencing the authentic character of this heritage land.
The resort makes a strong impression through its figurative architectural language, with forms reminiscent of the undulating tiled roofs of Hoi An’s old town. Green spaces are incorporated across the rooftops and between building volumes, evoking the traditional gardens of the region. Raw, natural materials such as exposed concrete, granite, and sandstone are combined with native vegetation—including areca palms, coconut palms, nipa palms, and sea hibiscus—to create a harmonious whole that blends naturally into the surrounding landscape.
Distinctive traditional values from Kim Bong carpentry village, Thanh Ha pottery village, and Hoi An’s silk village are subtly woven into the spaces, design details, and guest experiences, offering visitors a hospitality journey enriched by the cultural depth and identity of the heritage destination.
Hilton representative confirms that NHAAN embodies the distinctive values of Tapestry Collection by Hilton.
According to Ms. Hope Lang, Senior Operations Director for Southeast Asia at Hilton: “NHAAN brings together all the elements that today’s travelers are looking for: a strong sense of local cultural identity, refined design, authentic cultural experiences, and warm, personalized service.”
With the official opening of NHAAN Resort & Spa Hoi An, the destination not only gains an additional internationally standardized hospitality offering, but the resort is also expected to become an important link in the Da Nang–Hoi An tourism ecosystem. It is positioned to enhance the destination’s value, attract high-end international travelers, create employment opportunities, and contribute to the growth of the local economy.
